Family Roles and Labour Market

Abstract

The different position of individuals in the labour market seems to become a variable -not unique, though- with heavy explanator weight of specific family practices which are analysed in this article. Thus, the family inequalities are backed by differentiated reasoning powers, wich at the same time settle certain social practices that will allow us to distinguish -on a theoretical level- three patterns of family: the traditional-segregationist, the rupturist-modernizing and the mixed one.
